My legs feel like Jello, covering at least 10 miles (16 km) a day on the treadmill, some running but mostly brisk walking. I'm waiting for the time change in a couple of weeks to have enough time for outside walks when wife gets home.

In a month we'll be taking a short vacation road trip to Pawhuska, OK and then to Mansfield, MO, staying at old-fashion Western-styled bed-and-breakfasts in the middle of both towns. We'll be walking the towns (and to Laura Ingall's house just outside of town) to see just how much ground we can cover in a short time. The Country Western Prairie thing to me sounds kinda meh, but it should definitely be different exploring these places than NYC the following month.



The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly it’s day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run
